Ah you did hear about the investigation into hording of Karma, right?   

well at least you got some street cred... lol...

Dude...you got some Karma already...

Hrm. This is a bothersome trend... people posting asking for karma. The Karma system is designed to be a reward system to users by other users for being a helpful/nice/pleasing member of the community. It isn't a status thing but more of a 'thanks' thing. I'm going to talk with Zoomba when he gets back amount making a new forum rule against Karma Begging. I feel it defeats the purpose of the system.

I agree.

10 karma so far ya happy? geez. and don't make goofy posts like this again.

That was an excellent reply by HG.

I don't think it's that bothersome a trend to ask for how to get more karma points.

Someone is asking how to receive more karma points (read the subtitle of his post, he's asking how to get some), it shows that maybe there isn't alot of documentation available to users to find out how to get more karma or if there is alot of information, it isn't that easy to find possibly. A new karma system is implemented and some people are asking about it - I think it's probably a good thing, it shows users are interested in the new developments on this site and want some type of involvement. I personally don't think he was begging, it was a legitimate post from my point of view and he wasn't bashing anyone or arguing, it was a light hearted, fun type of question to ask in a unique way.

When someone asks a question and other people offer to help with information, that is good karma. Not just on on this site but also life in general. Karma is a very real thing to me, so be happy, be good to yourself and be good to others, what goes around does comes around.

Have a great day!   

My point was that I have been helping around and stuff... and no one has been giving me Karma...I didn't mean any harm by it... just trying to lighten things up...

it should be a rule that if you don't like a thread you should just ignore it... (I do mean that with the utmost respect of course)


Thank you for standing up for me...

Remember we're only on here to have fun...

You will get one, one day.

I ain't got no karma. After all these years, still no karma.

I whine and pout.

You missed your callin unclerob... You should try Marketing because that was one hell of a spin.   

Zubaz...10142 Karma. Last week you were in the 100s.
You can share the secret with me, I promise not to tell anyone else...how did you hack the system?  
























(before anyone flames me, the above is a joke. Zubaz is deserving of as much good karma as possible as he is one of the most helpful person on these boards)

I know people with odd senses of humor; people with power.  

  . . and thanks.  I just try to give back a smidge of what I've received here.  This community as a whole is better than any of us alone.  Thank *you*!

Quoting the actual post...

You were asking for karma, you weren't asking how to get it. So even though I agree with unclerob in that there's nothing wrong with asking questions about the system, he wasn't addressing the content of the actual post. Please don't ask for karma in the future, regardless of the intent.
